Fuchsia and her podcast

Fuchsia was an interesting young woman. Why? Because she was innately different from other people. As her name suggested, she was quirky and found interesting solutions for her everyday life problems. In this story, she does something wonderful for someone else, that she felt helped her in a beautiful way

Fuchsia also loved relating stories to people on a podcast she had created. A natural introvert, she was not as talkative, but she liked to learn from her inner world. Surprisingly, the podcast had several followers, and many of these people who heard the podcast befriended her.

One day something strange happened. One of the recent fans of her podcast ‘Fuchsia: The Eclectic Learning Station’ had a strange request. He sent her a DM. Fuchsia was a little taken aback.

‘Hey Fuchsia, this is Darren.’ the message said. ‘Could you help me, I think my life depends on it’ she continued reading.

Fuchsia was both surprised and startled at the same time because it was the first time a fan had sent her a message like this. She started to laugh a little to herself and decided to help this person against her better judgment.

She continued interacting with the person on instant messaging. She learned that the young man was just 15 like her, and he had a cute nature and a fun personality. But it seemed to be taking him a while to reveal what exactly would be the lifesaving help that Fuchsia could give him.

Darren was chatty like that and seemed to want to talk about everything under the sun, except the one thing that had Fuchsia very curious. Fuchsia on the other hand started to wonder if he really had a problem at all in the first place.

Darren revealed finally that he was also going to do a podcast with her. He finally came clean about the fact that he was a new aspirant to the football team, but it was his stepmom who was trying to get him to quit.

Not having anyone to help buy sports gear and other things, he decided to start a podcast instead because he had an amazing, audible-sounding voice that was cute, which Fuchsia also noticed and was starting to grow to admire.

Eventually, he admitted that the lifesaving help he needed from Fuchsia was for her to tell stories on his podcast. That would probably help monetize it, and give it the boost it needed so much, in the beginning at least!

If there was anything unsavory about the situation, it was just that Darren’s stepmom was a bit unsavory. Darren so wanted to do this.

Fuchsia decided that she would help Darren. After a few weeks of rehearsing, and recording, they finally came out with Darren’s first podcast ever.

Entitled ‘What makes sportsmen poetic’ the podcast had a script created by Fuchsia, that was narrated by Darren. The podcast went viral within days of its release.

If there was anything Fuchsia felt she could do less of in this world, it could be helping other people become stars on her podcast for free. But Fuchsia put every bit of her heart and soul into the script as she always did, which is why it had such an amazing effect on the people who heard it.

Fuchsia saved the day — again. The unsung heroine, the one who gave her best to everything she did. She made a new series on ‘Fuchsia: The eclectic learning station’ dedicated to sports and her growing love for maintaining a healthy lifestyle.

Lots of listeners this time too, and Fuchsia managed to learn something unique from helping Darren avoid some rather low and unsavory moments in his life!

Fuchsia continued living her life her way. Her beautiful way, in which she loved to help people, and also do what she loved most, i.e. make podcasts that people loved. She and Darren stayed friends, and he still sometimes makes podcasts on her show that go viral. She continues to do what she loves on Fuchsia : The Eclectic Learning Station!
